Rumours and Stuff

Avengers a mate of me and I can tell you that he's been right on more occasions than people can poke a stick at.. I don't call him the 'iron gut' for nothing.

The more important point is how poor a judge must Arthur's be?

8 all at oranges, Then we skipped away with tries to Jennings x 2 and Semi.

We were rubbish for most of that game. Never looked like winning until 15 to go.

 

[El Diablo]

Didn't the refs try to royally f**k us over that night?

they do that every week

 

[84 Baby]

That's the big question. Had we lost you could understand. Betting on the game isn't allowed however it's hardly a fix if you won and Manly were apparently favourites.

Kieran is actually the greatest player ever and just makes it happen

That night??? more like every night. Can't wait to see how they f**k us over tonight.

I bet they won't give a penalty within kicking distance to open the scoring

That is true and I'm sure the bunker and refs will be coming up with new ways to make sure Manly win. I thought they had thought of everything when knocking on into the scrum was OK.

'Iron gut' is something I did at Uni, where I had to eat shit like raw horse tongue/dog food and then neck a schooner.

Foran may have ducked in and said gday to his Manly mates before the game.

 

[Incorrect]

I remember thinking earlier in the season when the initial match fixing story broke that Foran maybe wanted out of Manly because he knew about others involved in these shenenigans lastyear and wanted to remove himself from it completely.... we all thought he was as pure as the driven snow, maybe he is.... but the stuff being reported by McClymont casts a fair shadow over those mentioned in the article....

 

[IFR33K]

Maybe Foran was only after a release because it was to be his last payslip from a NRL club.

Probably no worse than Des Hasler mate..

I do that regularly on a Friday night

Of course he does.

The significance lies in why the original amount was split six or seven ways. I think that will take the spot light of of Parramatta.

Police probe fresh NRL match-fixing claims from Eels v Sea Eagles game

MICHAEL CARAYANNIS, REBECCA WILSON, PAUL KENT, The Daily Telegraph
August 5, 2016 1:29pm

MATCH fixing allegations in the NRL have heated up with police investigating a game from earlier this year.

The Daily Telegraph understands that police are investigating a game between Parramatta and Manly on April 14 this year. Parramatta beat Manly 22-10.

There are suggestions that a man with close links to NRL players placed $18,000 worth of bets on the Eels to cover the points spread against Manly.

The Eels scored three tries in the final 12 minutes to win the game.

In June the Daily Telegraph reported “that a man walked in to Breakers Country Club at Terrigal and fed 10 $100 notes and 340 $50 notes into the pub tab, where no cameras are trained on the machine.

“The unusual betting was all to avoid detection.”

The man who placed the bet is a close associate of at least one of the players involved in the Manly and Parramatta match.

An NRL spokesman confirmed the NRL was continuing to assist police with investigations.

“Our position has not changed…we will take whatever action is necessary to protect our game,” a spokesman said. “Anyone convicted of match fixing can expect to be banned for life but, at this stage, no one has been charged and we should avoid jumping to conclusions.”

Police released the following: “NSW Police Force’s Organised Crime Squad is in the early stages of examining information relating to alleged match fixing in the NRL. No further comment is appropriate at this stage.”

No they just copied and pasted it from the herald site.

If Manly players are the ones under suspicion, why lead with the photo of Parra players?

 

[Incorrect]

Carayannis actually wrote but when Wilson found out it was a story painting league in a bad light she insisted her name be added. Ditto Kent when he found out there was a potential negative Parra link

 

[Noise]

All those that were claiming Foran was worth every cent, the player we needed, a great leader etc and bagged Avenger and I for stating otherwise have gone very quiet

Lol. All quite likely.

 

[Twizzle]

They have to get the Eels into the headline some how.

These media shits would go broke if it wasn't for us.
